Romance on the High Seas Page #7

Then I'm all through

There's this about you

My world's an empty world

Without you

It's you or no one

For me

lt's magic.

You know,

that's a mighty dangerous song.

And this night isn't helping any either.

lt's one for the books.

Just like they said in the folder.

They didn't leave anything out tonight.

Breeze, moon, stars.

And all working overtime.

Makes a man feel--

Wants a woman in his arms.

And vice versa.

-lf only you weren't married.

-How l wish l could tell you l wasn't.

How easy it would be if you weren't

married, l'd take you in my arms.

-Like how?

-Like this.

-Then what?

-On your lips, l'd-- l'd plant a kiss.

Such as?

But then you have a husband.

And you have principles.

-Elvira.

-Yes, Peter?

Something l've gotta do.

l can't help myself.

Well, if you can't help yourself,

you can't help yourself.

l gotta send a cablegram.

Prepare yourself.

Another radiogram to be sent at once.

Send that one collect too.

You'll let me know how it comes out,

won't you?

Mrs. Kent, a message from Mr. Farrar.

l have a message for you

from Mr. Virgil.

l'm first. Mr. Farrar would like you

to join him at the Flambio for dinner.

That's my message.

Mr. Virgil said he had to

go ashore to make a call...

...and would you meet him

at the Flambio?

-Flambio?

-Flambio.

In Trinidad, in Trinidad

The women are good

But the liquor is bad

In Trinidad, in Trinidad

The women are good

But the liquor is bad

May we sing you

a song, sir?

Not about a good woman.

There's no such thing.

Run when you see a pretty woman.

When you sing calypso, you don't say,

''When you see a pretty woman.''

When you see a pretty woman.

-When you see a pretty woman?

-That's right.

You sing, we'll follow you.

What can l lose

that l haven't already lost?

Run, run, run

When you see a pretty woman

Run, run, run

When you see a pretty woman

Love is the common enemy

The moon and the stars are the artillery

When they attack

You'll find there's no retreat

You will lose your heart

Unless you use your feet

Oh, run, run, run

When you see a pretty woman

Run, run, run

When you see a pretty woman

I know a girl whose kiss was warm

I never thought that it could do me harm

There never was a better girl like her

But her husband

Was professional wrestler

Oh, run, run, run

When you see a pretty woman

Run, run, run

When you see a pretty woman

Woman say come in out of rain

More better you stay out in the hurricane

You catch a cold

But it is worth the pain

Better off catch cough

Than catch a ball and chain

Oh, run, run, run

When you see a pretty woman

Run, run, run

When you see a pretty woman

Tropical heat is very bad

Has played dirty trick

On many nice young lad

The brain go flip

The heart is go flip-flop

Woman blow you kiss

And then you blow your top

Oh, run, run, run

When you see a pretty woman

Run, run, run

When you see a pretty woman

Run, run, run

When you see....

Oh, l beg your pardon.

l didn't see you coming back there.

-Go in after me.

-After you.

l insist, please.

-All right, fine.

-Thank you.

-You on the same boat?

-Yeah, the Southern Queen.

Good evening.

What is your pleasure?

-A double.

-A double what?

Double anything.

-And you, sir?

-The same.

Women.

l agree with you 1 00 percent.

They're a bad influence on a man.

Not only that, but they're habit-forming.

You know, l can't think of one single

good thing to say about them.

That's a mighty smooth drink.

Another.

Me too.

Only this time, make mine a triple.

A triple, sir. Very good.

Who said you can't live with them

and without them?

The same guy who said

more truth than poetry...

...and l wouldn't care to meet

either of them.

The cause of all human suffering,

you know.

To think that we gave up

a perfectly good rib.

And not that they appreciate it.

What does yours look like?

Well....

-Funny, mine looks exactly the same.

-Yeah?

-l drink to your woman.

-l drink to yours.

-One more for me.

-l likewise.

-l'm beginning to feel those drinks.

-Me too. Should have had something to eat.

Yeah, that's always a good idea.

ls yours a blond too?

This season. l've loved her as a brunette,

a brownette, and a redhead.

A little peroxide

will never come between us.

Speaking about figures, curves?

Curves?

When you put your arm around her waist

you gotta go into second.

What color are her eyes?

Now, l never could tell.

Every time l look into them,

l get dizzy.

My experience exactly.

Hey, we could be talking about

the same girl.

What's your girl's name?

-Georgia. Georgia Garrett.

-Georgia Garrett.

No, no, that's a different girl.

Mine's gonna be here any minute.

-l want you to meet her.

-Mine will be here too.

l bet they'll like each other at first sight.

While waiting, what do you say

we have another drink?

Just the thing. Yes, sir.

Fill them up again, bartender.

That is a wonderful suggestion.

l came through, didn't l?

Boy, you can say that again.

-l come through.

-Yes, sir.

Of course, the rub is

that mine is married.

How about yours,

is yours a Mrs.?

At the moment.

l don't know about you...

-...but l'm really getting a little high.

-So am l.

l don't know what he puts in those drinks,

but he's really won me over.

Dare we try another?

Second the motion.

Coming right up.

-Oh, waiter.

-Yes, miss.

Do you see those two gentlemen

sitting at the far end of the bar?

-Yes.

-Would you be so kind...

...and give them these messages?

Thank you.

-Here you are.

-Keep the change.

-Thanks.

-l'm not leaving till l get this recipe.

Excuse me. The lady send this.

The lady send this.

What do you know,

she's standing me up.

Yeah? Well, shake hands.

Mine isn't coming down either.

l'll show her. l've got a good mind

to catch a plane to New York.

Maybe l ought to go to New York myself.

l'm certainly not doing any good here.

-You mind if l go with you?

-Have you got two tickets?

Oh, l got better than that.

ln that case, be my guest.

Steady, steady, steady.

They'll never let us on that plane

if we're drunk.

You know, these slanting floors

will never be popular.

Peter. Peter.

Good morning, Mr. Virgil, it's 9:1 5.

Lovely day, temperature normal.

Hey, you, you've had

your beauty rest. Come on, get--

Are you looking for the gentleman?

-Do you know where Mr. Virgil is?

-He didn't return to the ship.

We received a radiogram

from him and Mr. Farrar.

-Mr. Farrar too?

-Yes, madam.

They said they were taking a plane to New

York, and would we forward their baggage.

Thank you.

Thank you, madam.

Fasten your safety belts, please.

Fasten your safety belts, please.

Sorry, sir, but will you fasten

your safety belt, please?

-Yes, sure.

-We're landing in Rio in a few minutes.

-What? Where did you say?

-Rio.

Hey, Peter, wake up.

-Wake up.

-Wha--?

Hey, one thing l'll say

about that Trinidad liquor.

-Not a sign of a hangover.

-Maybe this will bring it on.

-That stewardess says we're landing in Rio.
